Question NW998 to the Minister of Communications
21 November 2019 - NW998
Mackenzie, Mr C to ask the Minister of Communications
What are the reasons that the De Rust Post Office is closed and (b) by what date will the post office reopen to continue providing essential services to the rural community?
Reply:
I have been advised by SAPO as follows:
a) The landlord evicted Post Office due to rental dispute as the landlord increased the rental money more than double the amount the Post Office was paying.
b) The De Rust Post Office opened on 02 October 2019.
